EVELO Omega Powerful Step-Through Electric Bike

OVERVIEW

A quick note on assembly: your Omega has hydraulic brakes, and includes a spacer in the front brake caliper to keep the brake pistons retracted. This must be removed prior to assembly, and should be installed when the front wheel is removed. The caliper is located at the bottom of the front fork. Simply pull the plastic tab out to remove it, and slide it back in after wheel removal:
Is your Omega fully assembled? Great! Let’s go over a few key items:

You’ll need power

The battery charge port is at the top right of the battery, with a rubber cover. Pull the cover back and charge the battery with the included charger. We recommend fully charging your bike before your first ride:

Note: The battery can be charged on or off the bike. To remove the battery, insert and turn the key on the left side of the battery, then lower the battery away from the key at the top. To install, insert the battery at the bottom and swing back into position while pushing up towards the frame. Turn the key to lock the battery in place

Pre Ride Check

Before your initial ride, please check the following items:

• Wheels should spin freely. There may be some slight rubbing of the brakes, which typically subsides once the brakes are used a few times.
• Belt tension: check the belt for appropriate tension. With a firm press in the middle of the belt, there should be approximately 3/8” of play, +/- ¼ of an inch. If your belt needs adjusted, please contact EVELO for instructions to adjust belt tension.
• Squeeze both brake levers to ensure that the brakes can be fully secured before the levers hit the handlebars. Because the hydraulic fluid path is longer to the rear brake, the rear lever may have a bit more travel, which is typical.
• Ensure that the thru axle securing the front wheel is tight. The front thru axle is secured with an allen wrench.
• Check your tire pressure. Because of the wider tires, it will likely be lower than you are accustomed. While the maximum pressure is relatively high, best performance is found between 18 to 24 PSI for riders 140 lbs to 280 lbs. For every 20 lbs over 140 lbs, increase by approximately 1 PSI.

Familiarize yourself with the controls

Brakes:
Your Omega includes front and rear brake levers, equipped with cutoff switches that turn off power to the motor when the brakes are pressed. It’s recommended to squeeze both brakes with equal power at the same time for stopping.

Shifter:
Your bike includes the state-of-the-art Enviolo Automatic shifting system, and is ready to ride out of the box. We highly recommend installing the Enviolo App to ensure your software is consistently up to date and to get the most out of your EVELO Electric Bicycle. In some instances, it my be necessary to perform an initial calibration. This must be done with the app or with the optional CO controller. Please consult the included manual for more details, or the Automatic Quick Start Guide here: www.https://evelo.com/automatiq- omega.

Throttle:
The throttle is on the left hand side, and operational as soon as you power on the bike. Handle with care! The throttle can be useful for starting, particularly on a hill, but it is best to familiarize yourself with the bike prior to using throttle control.

Pedal Assist:
There are 5 levels of assist. You can access these with the two buttons on the left side of the three-button panel. The “+” increases the level, and “-” will lower it. We strongly recommend starting in level 1 or 2 until you’re used to the handling of your Omega. The buttons can be pressed while riding .

Adjust your seat

You can raise or lower the seat by opening the quick-release lever and adjusting the post up or down. There should be a slight bend in your leg at full extension, though some riders prefer to have the seat a bit lower until they are comfortable with the bike. If you are unable to get your seat low enough, you may need to cut your seat post. This can be done with a sharp hacksaw blade. Please contact us for details.

Power up your bike:
On the left side of your handlebars is a 4 button switch. The “o” on the lower right hand side of the button panel is used to toggle power on and off. Hold it for 2-3 seconds, until your display panel lights up.

Get on and ride

We recommend doing your first ride on flat terrain in an uncrowded area. Some tips for riding your Omega:

• Start slow! If this is your first time on an electric bike we recommend using a low level of assist until you are comfortable with the ride and handling.
• Start in Pedal Assist 1 or 2. You can use a bit of throttle to get going if you need a boost. A little goes a long way.
• The level of pedal assist can be adjusted while riding. Higher levels of throttle will provide more power and less range.
